Boy do I have something to show you!
« on: April 24, 2013, 05:45:24 pm »
As some of you are already aware Bubby and I did our own little mini swap. I made him an HHB flatty that he posted a week ago. Its my turn now! I tell you what, I have sat here and seen the quality in bubs bows for a good while now. Perfect tillers, perfect finish work and glue lines, perfect grain and so on. Now that I have actually held one of his bows and shot it, Im even more impressed. Its the whole sha-bang. The bow is maple backed, walnut core and maple belly. The tip overlays are the same woods. The handle is a dream.  Its 62" long and 53# @ 27". Amazing shooter and very, very light in the hand. She is a sweety thats gonna get her butt shut OFF at the Classic next week. Now all us easterners will get a chance to see what the California kid is made of! Thanks a million bub, your a good man.....and a so-so bowyer.. ;)

Nice bow, Bub! Congrats, Pearl. She looks like a shooter!!
